At 25, after giving up his university studies, he set out on a journey across Madagascar, which allowed him to play with many musicians, both traditional and modern. He recorded his first album Mikea in 1995. Since then, he has regularly released records that reveal his growing maturity and desire for exchange. The latest Stories is a 2006 album featuring South African Louis Mjlanga and French drummer David Mirandon.
